Fig. 91 Example: vehicle changing lanes and stationary ve-
hicle


Fig. 92 Example: driving into a curve
In some situations, the adaptive cruise assist
function is limited and you must assume control
of the vehicle when necessary, for example by ap-
plying the brakes.
— If a vehicle that was already detected (@ turns
or changes lanes, the adaptive cruise assist will
react to the vehicle ahead of it @).

— When driving into a curve > fig. 92 and out of a
curve, the adaptive cruise assist may react to a
vehicle in the adjacent lane and apply the
brakes. You can override the system by pressing
the accelerator pedal briefly.
— The adaptive cruise assist works with the vari-
ous sensors and cameras in the vehicle.
Vehicles can only be detected once they are
within the area and range covered by the sen-
sors > page 106.
— When driving around tight curves, a vehicle
driving ahead that was previously detected may
no longer be detected, and the adaptive cruise
assist may accelerate unexpectedly.
— The adaptive cruise assist does not react toa
stationary vehicle in the same lane if the sys-
tem expects that you can easily drive around
the stationary vehicle by turning the steering
wheel.
— The adaptive cruise assist may not react to sta-
tionary obstacles, such as the end of a traffic
jam, especially at high speeds.
— The adaptive cruise assist has a limited ability
to detect vehicles that are a short distance
ahead, off to the side of your vehicle, or moving
into your lane.
— Objects that are difficult to detect, such as mo-
torcycles, vehicles with high ground clearance,
or vehicles with an overhanging load, may be
detected late or not detected at all.
— The adaptive cruise assist does not respond to
people, animals, or objects that are crossing or
approaching from the opposite direction.

Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.

Fig. 100 Instrument cluster: request for driver interven-
tion
The request for driver intervention instructs you
to resume manual control of the vehicle if the
adaptive cruise assist braking function is not able
to maintain a sufficient distance to the vehicle
ahead. The system will warn you of the hazard
with the A indicator light and the message Dis-
tance!.
The display @ only appears when the Driver as-
sistance display is open in the on-board comput-

Driver assistance

Take-over
If the message Bo Please take over! appears, the
vehicle has been braked to a stop by Audi pre
sense and you must resume control of the vehi-
cle.

ZA WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
— Audi pre sense front cannot overcome natu-
ral physical laws. It is a system designed to
assist and it cannot prevent a collision in ev-
ery circumstance. The driver must always in-
tervene. The driver is always responsible for
braking at the correct time. Do not let the
increased safety provided tempt you into
taking risks. This could increase your risk of
a collision.
— Among other things, Audi pre sense front
does not react to pedestrians who are sta-
tionary, stopped, oncoming, and crossing at
an angle. It also does not react to cyclists,
groups of people, animals, crossing vehicles,
or oncoming vehicles and objects, such as
posts, guardrails, and railway vehicles.
— Audi pre sense front may be limited or un-
available when driving in curves.
— Loose objects can be thrown around the ve-
hicle interior during sudden driving or brak-
ing maneuvers, which increases the risk of
an accident. Store objects securely while
driving.
— In trailer mode, the braking behavior of the
trailer can be different than usual during au-
tomatic braking.

G) Tips
— If you switch off the ESC, Audi pre sense al-
so switches off automatically.
— Certain Audi pre sense front functions are
unavailable or have limited availability for
approximately 20 seconds after starting the
vehicle (may be longer depending on the
driving situation).

Early at first. If you feel that the prewarnings ap-
pear too early, then set the warning time to Me-
dium. The Late warning time should only be set
in special circumstances.
G) Tips
— If Audi pre sense is switched off, it switches
on again automatically once the ignition is
switched on again.)
— Switch Audi pre sense off when you are not
using public streets, when loading the vehi-
cle onto a vehicle carrier, train, ship, or oth-
er type of transportation, or when towing
the vehicle. This can help to prevent an un-
desired intervention from the Audi pre
sense system.

Parking and maneuvering


ZA\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
— The driver is always responsible when enter-
ing or exiting a parking space and during
similar maneuvers.
— Do not use this function if the vehicle cannot
move freely, for example when on a vehicle
jack.
— Sensors and cameras have spots in which
the surrounding area cannot be detected.
Objects, animals, and people may only be
detected with limitations may not be detect-
ed at all. Always monitor the traffic and the
vehicle's surroundings directly and do not
become distracted.

@) Note
— Do not use the park assist systems when
transporting cargo that extends out of the
vehicle, when snow chains are mounted, or
when the parking space is on a hill or in-
cline.
— Park assist guides the vehicle either away
from curbs or onto them if other vehicles
are parked on the curb. Make sure that your
vehicle's tires and rims are not damaged.
Resume control of the vehicle in time or
stop the parking process if needed to pre-
vent damage.
G) Tips
Follow the legal regulations in the country
where you are located when using Park assist.
edema ee cy
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
Requirement: a suitable parking space must be
found and selected > page 134. The vehicle must
initially be stationary.
> Select the reverse gear after stopping briefly.
> Remove your hands from the steering wheel.
> Pay attention to the path of the vehicle. If the
traffic situation permits, accelerate carefully
of.
> Follow the visual instructions in the center dis-
play and the warning tones until the parking
process
has ended.
> The indicators in the center display show the
necessary direction of travel. Drive in the direc-
tion indicated by the arrows or symbols on the
roof in the parking aid image @) > page 135,
fig. 117.
Park assist automatically steers the vehicle into
the parking space while the driver presses the
pedals. The maximum parking speed is approxi-
mately 4 mph (7 km/h).

Z\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
— The park assist is an assist system. The driv-
er is still responsible for monitoring the ve-
hicle's surroundings and preventing colli-
sions when using the system.
— When using park assist to drive into or out
of a parking space, the steering wheel turns
quickly on its own. Reaching into the steer-
ing wheel spokes while this is happening can
result in injury.
@) Tips
You can also cancel the driving direction set
by the system by shifting between D and re-
verse gear. Based on the position of the vehi-
cle, the system then calculates the additional
steering and driving directions for maneuver-
ing.
